My art training was in Textile Design and I worked for many years designing and colouring fabrics for the furnishings trade. I am interested in all types of surface print currently working predominantly in linoprint and mostly in a small scale. I am inspired by the natural world and the changing seasons but also the buildings of our beautiful city – Oxford.

I work from life and from the direct landscape, recently at Sandford Lock. I make drawings and paintings plein air using an outdoor easel and sometimes take sketches back to my studio to develop.

My inspiration is the landscape and light and colour in landscape, my medium is Unison pastel on pastelmat paper. Soft pastel is pure pigment. My style is impressionistic. Pastels are gently fixed after completion and mounted and protected immediately.

Oil or mixed media work
My mosaic work ranges from small brooches to large pieces of Public Art. I am also very influenced by nature and portraiture. My life’s work is an ongoing series of ‘Warrior women’ portraits. To date there are 10, with Jane Morris being my most recent portrait in this series.

En plein air oil paintings of local scenes in and around Sandford which feature the Thames. Living close to the Thames is a real bonus for a landscape artist!

I work with acrylics plus various mixed media on canvas frames. Sometimes I paint objects, such as saw blades or rusty cans and mount them in frames.
